I may be wrong, but. I ijiizll-t Kane is. dissatisfied!" " ' "Get Off Those Eggs" When Foley states that the "Kid Line" of the Abbies have been tak- ing the bumps for the rest of the team, he covers altogether too much territory. The writer has attended every senior loop fixture played in the lccal Forum to date and has yet to ilotice a single Red Shirtcd for- ward showing any signs of fear or whatever the Halifax scribe wishes to call it. . So far as Jenimett is concerned, there's nothing “safety first" about him. If Foley thinks so, he should have seen the said “Chuck” work against Wolves and Hawks on Char- lottetown ice, and I don't think the calibre of hockey hereabouts is any different from that which is played in Moncton or Halifax. Further still, the writer recalls Jelnmctt be- ing out of the game almost two weeks with injuries sustained when trying to hurdle the Moncton de- fence, and according to Jcmmctt himself, he was also knocked liors dc combat ‘ll/tho last Abbic-Wol- vcrinc game on the latter's home icc. Graham was the lad who caught Jcrnmett on this occasion- and tllc bold Frankie docs not play on tllc Wolves‘ forward linc. Dces this look as if "Chuck" is afraid to take his bumps. Of course Jcmmctt is careful, and would be an imbe- cilq to skate into needless danger. In fact, if I remember right, Mr. Foley made a like statement with regard t0 hockeyists who take need- less chances. Look out, Wilf. Y0“ may lose another “crisp five do'..ar bill," and according to Charlie Woods of Moncton. there's another OVER |, With regard to Jackie Kane, the Halifax sports writer is just cluck- ing. Kane is not only a very much interested piayer, but can take his bumps-—and knocks as well. And so far as being dissatisfied is con- corned, Foley just modifies his state- 1 merit with, "I may be wrong." Oil temporary. If you don't believe me ask Kane; and if Jackie refuses to be interviewed, he may answer you ‘ the-next time the Red Shirts meet the Bliienoso aggregation. _ Remembe last winter—Kane ans- l wcred Harry Butler and a few more of the Wclvcrlne followers, when thc Halifax clan were beaten by Abbics. On this occasion, the said Hamilton flash scored two unassisted goals himself that night. The "EvcmBreal: Column‘ has been amusing to date, but the last utburst is ridiculous. The Anvil Out Again A Monctoli exchange has tllc fol- lng comment on the recent Ab- ic-Hawk game. "Press reports said that the Hawks found themselves faced by only two players and a goalie while they had fivc on the ice and still they could .ot score. Something seems to be I ong. According to the count of shots blocked thc Hawks only fired 18 that came close enough to Bu- bar to hit him. Apparently the players started in right whore they left off in the last game with the Islanders here when shot after shot went wildly past the net, struck the posts and bounced out. Some snip- ing practice certalnly will not hurt. According to the above, some dis- satisfaction is beginning to crop up in Moncton, the home of the league leaders and the "world's greatest goalie." I wonder what thc Hawk followers will say today after read- ing about the Halifax game last night. We'll wait and sec. "Not Bunch-Perhaps Just Dumb" Jimmy Smith, N.

Th1 case arose from a charge allegel to have been made by Councillor {Day at the meeting of the on; ' Council lh June, i932. The jurors are: John M. Roor = foromfl-rl; John McFai-lane, 1 Alber. Hyde, Mark Inman, Wm. A. Me Donald, Leo Reid and Russell Me Dougall. The Counsel in this case are a: follows: J. A. MacDonald, J. J. Johnson K. C., for thc plaintiff, W. E. Bent- ley, K. C., J. A. Bentley for iii dcfcildailt. A number of witnesses for til prosecution testified that Councu lor Day had stated that the plaint- iff had stolen a bag of flour from the store of the defendant, and that the former had received an injury at Rosebank Farm by shoot- ing himself. M-r. J. A. MacDonald outlines‘ the case for the plaintiff and call- ed the latter as first witness. Leo Savidant, the plaintiff, tes- tified that he attended the Council meeting of June, 1932, and that he had had an application before the Council for porn-fission to run an ice cream stand in the Park. When In the opening game 0f the big, a motion had been nlade that wit- ness’ application be accepted, Coun- clllill‘ DBY lumped up and stated that the witness ilad received an ‘injury at Rosebank Farm by shoot. irli; himself, and that the witness 1had stolen a bag of flour from Mr. Day's store. 'I'l'le witness testi- fied that he had received the in- jury while in Dr. Frank's residence in Brighton from a fountain pen revolver which was in the hands o! a man named Weeks, a pafntor. As a result witness lost the sight iof one cyc, and had been forced to remain in the hospital for two months. The witness denied that he had stolen a bag of flour from Mr. Day's store. Mrs. Savidant, Frank Savldan’. .Charles'J. Mitchell, Councillors M. W. Reardon and B. R. Holman. Henry James Walsh, Peter Connol- ly also gave evidence. Frank Savidant testified that he had entered Councillor Day's store and had taken a bag of flour and had walked out with it. Mr. Day's son had followed the ivitness, and had taken the flour from him. Councillor Roardon had made the 111011011 that Mr. Savidanfs ap- plication be accepted. Councillor Holman could not re- collect cxactly what statement. Councillor Day had made. Witness had no special objection to Mr Savidalit. He was not in favour 0i making any appointment. Henry James Walsh had attended thc Council meeting and had heard Mr. Day's objection to Mr. Savid- ants appointment. Councillor Day had stated that Savidant had taken a bag of flour out of tne store, and that. Savidalir by filter- fcring with something which did not: belong to him had got blinded. Pctci" Connolly, truckmali, had been present at the Council meet- ing and had heard Coimcilior Day make some statement about Savi- dant shooting himself at Rosebank Farm, and stealing a bag of flour from the store.
